Not having many symptoms making me anxious

Hi everyone, going off last period date I should be 8 weeks and have had some symptoms eg headaches, sore nips, fatigue, but no nausea or sickness apart from 1 wave of nausea a few days ago. I'm going for an early scan in a couple of days and just so worried that it's going to be really small or worse as I feel like I should be feeling more pregnant at this point. So nervous about going to this Scan!!!

This post popped up for me, I had my baby in October 2024 but just wanted to say I was the exact same at that gestation, never had any sickness at all and barely felt pregnant until my bump started to grow! Best of luck with your scan, I had one at 8 weeks too and was also worried sick about what we would see but all was absolutely fine so try not to worry too much (I know much easier said than done!) xxx

First time mum here, I remember going through this anxiety, the only sign of pregnancy was the test at 4.5wks. I went crazy in ‘what if’ thoughts that I had to tell my sister and book an early scan at 8wks to prove to myself it was real. I am now 38wks + 2days and still have had zero/minimal symptoms of pregnancy. you are not alone in this feeling, feel your feelings but also remember to stay positive.💛

Not everyone gets symptoms so I wouldn’t stress too much (easier said than done I know). I didn’t get any symptoms really until around 12 weeks and even then it wasn’t many, had an early scan at 7 weeks (I was also stressing a lot) and although we couldn’t see much they could see the heart beat which was very reassuring. I now have 2 weeks left until due date and have had absolutely no complications the whole way through so no symptoms isn’t always a bad thing! Best advice is just try and keep in a positive mindset and good luck with the scan!!
